I liked the meme, but your comment got an actual chuckle from me. Thanks for the laugh, friend
For those interested in this species, this is actually called a "Long-tailed tit". This particular one is of the caudatus subspecies, recognizable by its pure white head, like this
love me some white tits
I like tits of any colour
Do you use Shopify for image hosting?
Nope, that was just the first appropriate image search result
The photographer who took this photo barely escaped with his life.
I heard that the bird actually tracked him down and murder him shortly after. They found the camera's SD card is the only thing still intact at the scene.
If there is one thing I've learned from Physics, is that everything is relative.
Killer borb
That's a snowball.
Did you mean pounds per square inch? The foot-pound is a unit of torque. That number would make more sense for the force generated by its wings.
It's a japanese bird, that should be Pascal.
Unless you mean the specific individual in the photo, it's not Japanese.
No non-metric area in that picture, the core of my joke still stands :P
think of the bird's claw as a small torque wrench ... similarly, when we unscrew the cap of a jar, we notice that our hands have a limited torque capacity.
Pictured above, a bird whose wings double as ears
Hard to unsee
Has anyone measured the impedance of that bird? It could be in the trillions of ohms! Terrifying if you think about it!
Sweet, a Long-tailed Tit.
Pssssh. The bag is wet, move in! Pssssh!
We all know that this bird is a murder hobo.
Which… really just makes it cuter.
